Brenda Crow wrote a sympathy message

“We were so sorry to hear of Judy's passing. We have so many memories of her and the family from back in the good 'ol days, (softball). We'll never forget her attempted card trick in the hotel in Joplin. Thinking of you in your time of loss. Glenn and Brenda Crow”
